Colobinae, which includes more than 70 species grouped into 10 genera distributed throughout Asia and Africa, show a wide range of ecological and social traits. The colobines are generally forest-living and arboreal, which can make research on this often-elusive group difficult. Despite these challenges, our understanding of colobine behaviour, ecology and morphology has increased a great deal over the decades since the first research review on this primate subfamily was published by Davies and Oates (1994). While new research has demonstrated the incredible variation of colobine natural history, and the adaptability of this group, some colobine populations have declined and are now critically endangered. The Colobines brings together experts from around the world in an innovative volume that summarizes the current knowledge on colobine populations.
